Last of the Halloween and alittle Christmas thrown in

 
 
This is the make n take I have been doing at my recent crops. It's a treat holder made from paper, stamped using the Fiskars Stamp Press and a smarties fits in there perfectly. It could also hold a tootie roll or a stick of gum. I will be doing the Christmas one at the next crop.

Another Halloween treat holder

Acrylic Album

This is an acrylic album I made while at my IRW retreat in Wisconsin. This is my family on vacation para sailing for the first time, scary, but wonderful. It is still a work in progress and needs some more journaling and such. I used the cuttlebug on the borders, kind of looks like waves. I really enjoy working with the acrylic sheets.
Oh the last slide is of Bud, hanging upside, crazy kid!

 

 

 

Here are some quotes on a frame I made to hang at our therapy clinic. I used some inexpensive picture/frames I picked up at the flea market for $5 for all 3, and took the pictures out. I used vinyl and cut out the quotes using the wishblade, and used some simple embellishes to dress them up.
Work had a contest "while you were out" and we each had to clean up or redo our gym/clinics. The winner gets a Wii to use in their clinic. Our facility has a Wii we use with our patients, but we wanted to get one to keep in our gym. I just got the Wii fit for home and we love it, so if we can win the Wii, we are getting the Wii fit to go with it.
If we win, then we are planning a ribbon cutting , and 1 year celebration for the community, then we can show off all the cool things you can do with the Wii and Wii fit for therapy/rehab.

 

This is a clear plastic pillowbox that can be used as a gift card holder or put some candy in it to give as a gift. This one was for Easter. I made these for my boys to give as teachers gifts for Valentines day and decorated them with hearts. Turned out to be a cute, quick and easy project, that was fun to make and can be changed for any holiday or event.

projects

Here are a few projects I have done. The first one is an acrylic frame, held together with ribbon.
The pictures are from when our family went with another couple and their 2 girls, apple picking in Illinois. I used rub-ons, a transparency, jewels and some die cuts.
The second one is an acrylic frame, flipped over and used as a memo holder. These were great teacher's gifts. The last one is a gift card holder, traced a pillow box as a template, stamped it in silver and added a few jewels.
